    They actually started Nate Jones at FS along with Clemons that game. But you're right, Culver has always played more than Clemons has and is listed ahead of him on the depth chart.

    Well away from here
    Are you rushing to finish all of that Landshark you bought before the season ends?

    Nay sir, one six pack a weekend since the losing streak was broken.

    I really do not know what they will do about the Wilson/Bell trainwreck, whatever it is they had planned clearly didn't work, but they forked out big bucks for both of them.

    If I recall correctly, Williams and Hamlen in Dallas both were two strong safety types?

    Shelve Wilson and Bell for all I care for the Texans game. I can handle .5 YPC more from Ryan Moats. I can't handle an Andre Johnson bombardment. Profootballfocus has the ratings clearly in favor of taking Bell and Wilson out in regards to pass coverage. Culver is the best one by far.

    They probably should even start Nate Jones at FS and Culver at SS this week. Let Moats have a 20 carry, 95 yard day if it means that we've kept Andre Johnson from going bombs away on our secondary.

    The post funk era

    The few games that Jones and Clemons played around 20 to 25 plays taking over for Bell and the Wilson, Jones played as the SS and Clemons played as the FS.

    I watched all the games over and over and Tony and a lot of other people have talked about that.

    Culver has never been anything more then a Dime/Nickel safety with Miami...........Anyways him and Clemons have different jobs.

    Anyways the front office would have to be just about ******ed to keep Wilson over Bell.,,,,,,,,,,,,they can always offer Y.B. a new deal and rip up the old one.

    BTW~Clemons just signed with Drew Rosenhaus and he was saying on wqam that he thinks Clemons will be the starting FS playing with Bell next year.So again he is Bell's agent as well so it would seem real dumb of him to say that Bell would be back here next year if he knew he wasn't going to be, because lots of NFL people hear that show and he'd be losing himself and Bell alot of money.

    Rosenhaus would be dumb not to talk up his clients, whether he is right or not. Whether there is truth to his statements, perhaps he does believe what he says, he is simply speaking to make his clients look good, he knows nothing about what lies in store for next season in regards to players on this roster.

    You kind of missed my point.

    If he had a client that he knew was going to be a F.A. it would be very unwise to say that client is still going to be a Dolphin next year........basically taking him off the market before he's even on it.

    If he thought he' was going to have someone on the open market.... like what some here are saying.Then he'd be telling the rest of the NFL that, because he has done that OVER and OVER in the past.

    Anywho i understand your point but it really didn't have much to do with mine.


    It's all about supple and demand, he would be hurting the demand for his client.

    Anyways Have a Merry Christmas.

    His client hurt his own stock last year. Yeremiah Bell had deals offered to him that he determined not worth leaving Miami. Bell essentially told the entire league one of two things last year with his decision.

    1. I need more to leave Miami.

    or

    2. I'm waiting for the uncapped year.

    Take note that in neither event Yeremiah Bell was offered what he considered his worth. That is after a very productive season. It was probably the best season of his pro career. Those interested in Bell have already talked to him prior to 2009. Rosenhaus could do no more damage than what has already been done.


    .......aside from Bell. The Rosenhaus story is a good local story for Miami. But as soon as I saw him mixing the line between "news outlet" and player agent all that I could think of was conflict of interest. Rosenhaus is an agent. There are young adults with NFL dreams watching in the dorms at the University of Miami. I'd plaster my face on the local news if I was Rosenhaus too. I'd plaster my face everywhere. My appearance would be more prolifc than the "Andre the Giant" stickers you see on DOT traffic signs.

    got the players 4 the DB
    need to set & wind the clock
    FrontOffice knows the score
    & will proceed accordingly

    needs:
    1) franchise PlayMaker @ WR
    2) starting calibre NT & ILB
    3) develop the talent we have


    will be ever vigilant turning over rocks & gathering acorns
    especially @ offensive line, running back & tight end
    look for the unsuspected as we turn the over the bottom of the roster

    I believe they will go after McFadden if the opportunity avails itself w/ the Raiders
